[PATCH 4/4] xfs: reactivate XFS_NEED_INACTIVE inodes from xfs_iget

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@xxxxxxxxxx>

When xfs_iget() finds an inode that is queued for inactivation, it
issues an inodegc flush to trigger the inactivation work and then
retries the lookup.

However, when the filesystem is frozen, inodegc is turned off and
the flush does nothing and does not block. This results in lookup
spinning on NEED_INACTIVE inodes and being unable to make progress
until the filesystem is thawed. This is less than ideal.

The only reason we can't immediately recycle the inode is that it
queued on a lockless list we can't remove it from. However, those
lists now support lazy removal, and so we can now modify the lookup
code to reactivate inode queued for inactivation. The process is
identical to how we recycle reclaimable inodes from xfs_iget(), so
this ends up being a relatively simple change to make.
